OUCH!!!!! I am so glad you went to the Dr. As many have said - they can be wicked. Glad you got an exterminator in to spray. You may have to have them back several times. I'm afraid it is going to be a bad year for spiders and bugs in general. Her in Kansas we did not have a hard enough winter to kill off bugs of any kind. Keep taking those antibiotics, and when they are all gone - if you are still swollen and/or hurting go back to the Dr. Hope you get well soon.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It is Sunday the 10th of June and I am on the mend. I still have a painful area on my lip. I think it will be there a while.
Grateful hugs, Bonnie
Oh Wow, Bonnie! That is a terrible surprise! three spider bites! Do you have any idea what kind of spider? I'm so very glad you found out and are being treated! I'll pray for your healing :-) gentle hugs, Jan no kissing for a while!
thank you Jan. My husband is very understanding so gentle, very gentle kisses are what we share.
Thank you hugs, Bonnie
Goodness I am glad you got treatment my brother was bitten on the back of his thigh by a black widow and he had to be put in the hospital and given anti venom shots I am praying for you do what you can to get rid of the spiders take care...
I am on the mend. I hope your brother recovered without too much problem.
Hugs, Bonnie
So glad that you got treatment! My daughter was bitten by a brown recluse spider on her calf, and now has a dark brown scar that is about the size of a quarter. SHe thought it was a mosquito bite at first. I wish we had thought about a spider bite earlier. Take all those antibiotics--you want to wipe that out completely!! Take care.
Thank you. I feel better today. Not quite so much pain. Thanks for your reply.
Hugs, Bonnie
Gee, glad you went to the doctor. I had to go for a spider bite once, but it wasn't that bad. Hugs, Judy
Thank you Judy. I had never heard of being bitten on the lip. Apparently it happens all the time !
Hugs, Bonnie
Bonnie I am so glad you went on to Dr. One summer when I was a summer camp nurse I had a patient who was bitten by a spider. If left on their own they can get very very bad. Her family wouldn't take her to the Dr., (she was a teenager and didn't want to go) Well it got very, very bad and finally I had her taken to the ER. /Lillian
Thank goodness Lilian. If it were my child I would like to think that someone like you would be there for them!
Many healthy hugs, Bonnie
Oh my Bonnie - I hope you spray for those spiders - you must have really been scared - when you found out that you had been bitten 3 times on your face. That just curdes my blood to think about. I am glad you went and got treatment.
I will keep you in my prayers.
Thank you Shirleen. I just thought it was a cold sore, but I don't get them. When the pain got so unbearable yesterday I really did not know what to do. DH said that I should go. I am glad he did!
We have an exterminator who had come twice in the last month. We are calling them again on Monday!
Thank you for your prayers.
Hugs to you, Bonnie
WOW that would be a scare, have you been able to find the spider? Take care and Good Luck!!
Thank you Dolly. It happened about 4 days ago while I slept. My lip was sore but progressively got more swollen and extremely painful. I am glad my DH suggested to see a DR.
I am better today, but have a way to go yet.
Hugs to you, Bonnie
